Special features: This 16-year-old Benriach matured in a balanced combination of bourbon, sherry, and virgin oak casks, giving it a complex aroma. The original bottling comes in a protective tube and consciously avoids coloring. Despite being chill-filtered, the whisky remains harmonious and approachable.

Nose: Fruity notes of ripe apples, vanilla, and a hint of dried herbs.
Palate: Soft and full-bodied with hints of honey, sherry, and subtle oak.
Finish: Long-lasting with spicy nuances and a pleasant, warm aftertaste.
